According to my OS/2 manual, AIX can be installed to a partition it creates itself at the end of OS/2's disk space.

The trouble is, it's an OS/2 2.0 manual and I have Warp 4.52. Worse yet, the PC version of OS/2 was discontinued around the time of OS/2 2.1 when 800Mb hard drives were still huge. I have an 80 Gig drive.

OS/2 Warp 4.52 installed very differently from 4.0, so maybe I should just try installing a partition and putting AIX in it, but how big can it be? What is AIX 1.3's hard drive limit?
